Re: Plane crashes in Greece due to unconscious pilots
its so easy to pass comments sitting in the comfort of your living room..
something drastic must have happened. I even read somewhere the not only the pilots but ALL passengers and crew were probably DEAD , even before the plane hit the mountain. If decompression occurs above 30000 ft, the total time before you lose consiousness is 15 seconds MAXIMUM, because of lack of oxygen.
It takes a while to realize what has gone wrong. Then even if you take counter measures it is IMPOSSIBLE to drop 20,000 feet in 15 seconds. Doing so would break the aircraft into pieces, because of the stresses.
